Bookmarks--do you like a tassel with beads or plain?
I just finished a batch for this year's students. I love how they look plain. Once I add the grommet and hemp with beads, I don't like them as much. Sometimes the beads fall off if the knots aren't big enough. I, personally, always use plain bookmarks.
So--I wanted to go with the majority on this one. Should I add tassel and beads? Yay or nay?

I'm assuming the beads and/or tassel would fall to the OUTSIDE of the book pages, so in that case, I like a length of cord and a tassel. Inside the book, I prefer a thin bookmark. In reality, I usually use a scrap of paper or a piece of yarn.

I have made a tone of magnetic bookmarks for kids - decorated with stickers and the kids really like these a lot. Also, for teens, I have made some "book thongs" - just a cord that goes the length of a book with beads, etc. on each end. HTH
